Introduction: A former high school and college teacher with advanced degrees in instructional techniques, I specialize in applying modern teaching theory to chess.
Winner of the "Chess Journalist of the Year" award, I've authored and co-authored over a dozen books, including "Chess Rules of Thumb" and "Winning at Computer Chess."
My latest book on chess, part of the Knack series of books, is "Chess for Everyone; a Step-by-Step Guide to Rules, Moves, & Winning Strategies,"and is just now hitting the shelves.
I live locally, so whether you're a complete beginner, or looking to improve your game, I'll be happy to help.
Instruction is also available using Skype or Gmail video chat if time or distance is a problem, or if this is simply a more convenient way for you to learn.
Chess Instruction For Children and Adults: $55 per lesson.
